Instructions given to the literacy and educational levels, mother-tongue, bi-lingualism, enumerators in 1881 read as follows: "If any person is unable religion and special' characteristics of Scheduled Castes and to state his or her age precisely, do not leave the column blank, Scheduled Tribes. They have been compiled from the data but fill it up with as much accuracy as you can from your own obtained from the following questions in the individual slip: observation, if the person is before you and after a proper enquiry from other inmates of the house".

  • Language Transliteration in Indian Languages – a Lexicon Parsing Approach
    LANGUAGE TRANSLITERATION IN INDIAN LANGUAGES – A LEXICON PARSING APPROACH SUBMITTED BY JISHA T.E. Assistant Professor, Department of Computer Science, Mary Matha Arts And Science College, Vemom P O, Mananthavady A Minor Research Project Report Submitted to University Grants Commission SWRO, Bangalore 1 ABSTRACT Language, ability to speak, write and communicate is one of the most fundamental aspects of human behaviour. As the study of human-languages developed the concept of communicating with non-human devices was investigated. This is the origin of natural language processing (NLP). Natural language processing (NLP) is a subfield of Artificial Intelligence and Computational Linguistics. It studies the problems of automated generation and understanding of natural human languages. A 'Natural Language' (NL) is any of the languages naturally used by humans. It is not an artificial or man- made language such as a programming language. 'Natural language processing' (NLP) is a convenient description for all attempts to use computers to process natural language. The goal of the Natural Language Processing (NLP) group is to design and build software that will analyze, understand, and generate languages that humans use naturally, so that eventually you will be able to address your computer as though you were addressing another person. The last 50 years of research in the field of Natural Language Processing is that, various kinds of knowledge about the language can be extracted through the help of constructing the formal models or theories. The tools of work in NLP are grammar formalisms, algorithms and data structures, formalism for representing world knowledge, reasoning mechanisms. Many of these have been taken from and inherit results from Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Linguistics, Logic, and Philosophy.

  • Transliteration of Tamil to English for the Information Technology
    Transliteration of Tamil to English for the Information Technology ‘jAzhan’ Ramalingam Shanmugalingam (‘appuAcci’) <[email protected]> San Diego CA 92131 USA. ___________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT: Transliteration as I understand is a method by which one could read a text of one language in the writing method of another language word to word. In other words, it is the transcription of a text in one language using the script of another language. However the transliterated word or words may not sound the same as the original unless corresponding letters that sound the same are found in the transliterated language. 18 English letters have similar sounds in Tamil that can represent the 18 basic Tamil letters. The balance 13 basic Tamil letters need some 'sound connection'. That is why we have to devise a standard scheme that will also fit into modern technology. The 'jAzhan’ Scheme, therefore, uses only 22 English letters of the QWERTY Keyboard without having to use symbols or diacritical marks that are used to mean different things to different people. Transliteration of Tamil has to fit the need for Tamil to be recognized as the only other known language comparable to the English language with a 26-letter keyboard. This dispels the notion that Tamil is a complicated language with 247 letters in the Alphabet. Whereas there are only 31 basic Tamil letters that fit into the 26-letter keyboard without using any symbols or diacritical marks. Tamil is a unique language and belongs to the Dravidian family. Dr. Steven Pinker, the Peter de Florez Professor in the Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, in “Words and Rules” places Dravidian language around 15,000 years ago in the Ancestry of Modern English Chart vide (http://www.mit.edu/~pinker/).

  • Automatic Phonetic Transcription of Tamil in Roman Script
    Proe. Indian Acad. Sci., Vol. 86 A, No. 6, December 1977, pp. 503-512, 9 Printed in India. Automatic phonetic transcription of Tamil in Roman script E V KRISHNAMURTHY Department of Applied Mathematics, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore 560 012 MS received 14 Febmary 1977; revised 20 June 1977 Abstract. Simple formalized rules are proposed for automatic phonetic transcription of Tamil words into Roman script. These rules are syntax-directed and require a one-symbol look-ahead facility and hence easily automated in a digital computer. Some suggestions are also put forth for the linearization of Tamil script for handling these by modern machinery. Keywords. Automatic phonetic transcription; data representation; linearization of Tamil script; Roman script; Tamil script; transcription. 1. Introduction Ir is well known that in the oldest of the Dravidian languages, Tamil, thepronuncia- tion of the letters eorresponding to the eonstants ~, g~, ,', ~, t~, ~ (called Surds) and their eonsonanto-vowels* vary eonsiderably depending upon the sequence in which these letters are embedded (hence may be called phonetically eontext-sensitive) e.g. there is only one set of a consonanto-vowel (CV) corresponding to the four different sound-values** in the words below; these are underlined. Na hai Ka t tu Pakhkhu Ponggal In other words there is a many-to-one mapping from sound-values to the Surd anda one-to-many mapping from the surd to its sound value. Accordingly, Tamil is nota strictly phonetic language (in relation to its writing system) unlike all other Indian languages. The advantage of not being strictly phonetic in this sense is rewarding, since there is ala enormous reduction in the number of letters in the alphabet; the disadvantage, however, from the point of view of a non-native speaker is the difficulty in leaxning the actual pronunciation which varies depending upon the context.

  • Lost Word Is Lost World - a Study of Malayalam
    ================================================================== Language in India www.languageinindia.com ISSN 1930-2940 Vol. 16:6 June 2016 ================================================================== Lost Word is Lost World - A Study of Malayalam Dr. R. I. Prasanth ================================================================== Abstract This study attempts to present some of the salient features of influence of other langauges on Malayalam. Kerala people’s contact with other people groups from India and elsewhere led to many changes in vocabulary and this enriched the language. In particular, impact of Pali and Prakrit impact needs to be further explored. Key words: Influence on Malayalam, impact of contact on culture. Influence of Other Languages on Malayalam Language originated from sound, script originated from pictures, expression from natural body movements and utensils from the figures seen. What is explored here is to watch history of Malayalam while on transition by finding certain words and how it functioned through in the great passage of time. This is an attempt to find history from words, script, expression and utensils left by a succession of people. There is always living fossil left unmarked by the living time and one can discover missing links there. It will be done by acknowledging the influence of languages in its periphery. Writers common in Malayalam acknowledge the heavy influence of Tamil and Sanskrit but ignore the influence of Pali and Prakrit, what was the breath of life from 3 BC to 13 century AD Kerala. Sinhala language influenced it much. Tulu had influenced it. So did Konkani. These will be discussed separately. Just as the highlands people and islands people, people beyond the sea also contacted throughout its history.
